filter_list What is a Watchlist?
A Watchlist is your personalized filter across 70,000+ global stocks and ETFs. It shows only instruments you care about or can actually trade with your broker.
Without a Watchlist: Browse 70,000 instruments → slow, noisy, overwhelming.
With a Watchlist: Focus on 1000-5000 instruments → fast, relevant, actionable.
